The element clients already use twemoji (with the exception of EXI (element-hq/element-x-ios#2242)), so maybe there is nothing to do here?

it'd still be nice to check the "can in fact pull images from a JSON file" box if we can, I think. Especially to understand if client teams expect the spec to be the CDN for those images, or if they'll cache them locally (if they cache them locally, we may want to inline the images rather than URL them)

Does anyone other than Element even use twemoji? It's been dead for years
For reference, Beeper is standardizing on Noto color emoji for verification and some other areas

@ara4n as the person who wanted to mandate twemoji in matrix-org/matrix-spec#13, any insights here?

While the main twemojj repo is dead, jacked’s fork is still active, and used by Discord iirc

Proposal to supply exact images to be used within emoji verification, to avoid confusion for users where clients use different emoji fonts.
I am a member of the Element Crypto team, but I am proposing this as an individual member of the Matrix community.
